About
We all have a story to tell but sometimes we don't know how to begin. This immersive one-day course at Seamus Heaney HomePlace looks at the genre of memoir and explores the ways we mine memories to bring our own lives to the page.
This course begins from the stepping off point that we are all creative. By immersing ourselves in the moment and giving ourselves permission to write, our own individual stories take shape.
